Hailed by American Songwriter as a “sophisticated, introspective singer/songwriter” and as having “a lovely, ever-on-the-verge-of-breaking voice, and knows how to sell a song” by The Washington Post, critically lauded Nashville-based singer-songwriter Holly Williams will self-release her third studio album, The Highway, on Georgiana Records February 5.
Co-produced by Charlie Peacock (The Civil Wars) and Williams, The Highway is the follow-up to 2009’s Here With Me, and is Holly’s first record as an independent artist. Additionally, the album features guest vocals from Jackson Browne (“Gone Away From Me”), Jakob Dylan (“Without You”), Dierks Bientley (“’Til It Runs Dry”) and Gwyneth Paltrow (“Waiting On June”). Featuring 11 original compositions of “serious-minded, heavy-hearted songwriting she’s done all along” (Nashville Scene), all songs were either written or co-written by Williams.
Holly released her debut album The Ones We Never Knew (Universal South) in 2004. Here With Me (Mercury Nashville) earned high praise from The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, USA Today, People, Entertainment Weekly, American Songwriter, NPR Weekend Edition Sunday.
